Out of the totally enclosed racks (closets) I've used the APC and HP (yes,
the computer maker) racks and both are very good.  I can't remember which
manufacturer I used to use for open racks.  Pretty much any manufacturer
will do but the biggest thing is quality of the product and has the options
you want (cable runs, square or hole mounting, cooling, etc)
